2019 Official NBA Free Agent thread

Assets in picks are going back to the Utah Jazz in the New Orleans Pelicans deal, League Sources tell The Athletic. NO takes Derrick into cap space

Looks like maybe just a trade for his last year, what do we give up? A couple of seconds and maybe that heavily protected cavs pick next year?

Thank Gracie. She made this happen.

*Shares for the continues flow of good luck*

Jrue must feel like a kid at Christmas.

Reddick, Favors, Ball, Ingram, Zion, Melli, Hayes, upgraded practice facilities

Do what?!?! We get Favors and his final year at $16.9 million. Sweet cause I’m hoping Jaxson Hayes is ready next year to start.

And the best trainer team in the league from Phoenix too

We shouldn’t be giving up more than a second. favors wasn’t in the Jazz’s plans and the trade helps them to open up space.

Favors wouldn't make it past the Cavs on the waiver wire

The Jazz not being able to figure out how to play Gobert and Favors together is our boon.

Favors has tremendous talent. He's healthy. He's physical. He's long as hell. Rebounds. Only thing he doesn't do is shoot from deep, and he probably could someday.

Niceee soon as I read this I happened to be playing the Jazz on 2k haha and thanks Gracie!!!

Favors = Good https://t.co/Lj9faBcol2

A Jeremy Lin signing would be the cherry on this off-season

I wonder if Boogie has gotten more or less calls than he did last year at this time ��**♂️

Sham... You're drunk. Get off twitter. If the Pelicans needs a player to sit on the bench and log 0 minutes. They can give me a minimal.

Looks like E'Twan might be going to the Jazz in the deal, which would mean WE STILL HAVE MONEY. :)

(Per Twitter)

Nice!! A legit starting center than can play power forward too. So like Horford he can play with Zion, Hayes, Okafor, Wood, & Melli IMO. He’s not the stretch 4/5 we needed, but hopefully Melli will be that baby!!

Great day for us in free agency! Didn’t break the bank at all, so we keep our future flexibility. Now we just need to move Moore & hopefully bring back Elfrid Payton.

C: Favors, Okafor, Wood
PF: Zion, Hayes, Melli
SF: Ingram, Hart, Kenrich
SG: Jrue, Redick, NAW
PG: Ball, Payton, Jackson

Nice if we can get move Moore and add a point guard as good as Payton. Unless we good with Jrue, Jackson, & NAW as our backup lead guards which could be the case for sure.

Jeremy Lin?? No way unless Payton, Beverley, or others are too expensive. But I could name quite a few point guards over Lin

Swap Hayes and Woods.

NAW is mainly a point guard.

Also points more to my thinking that Hayes barely sees the floor next year.

Front court depth more like:

C - Favors, Okafor, Wood
PF - Zion, Wood/Melli
SF - Ingram, Hart/Melli

I like Moore, but he was too streaky and never seemed like a "4th quarter clutch shoot in the chamber" good...

I hope we moved Moore in this deal, if it means we bring back Payton. If not then I rather keep Moore.
